DH8 7BP
3 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
High-spec three-bed with panoramic south-facing garden and energy-efficient systems.
Bespoke new-build with 10-year builder's guarantee
A bespoke new-build semi-detached home set on the edge of open countryside, Raptor Cottage offers bright, contemporary living with genuinely panoramic rural views. The ground floor centres on a generous open-plan kitchen/living space with glazed corner façade and bi-fold doors that open onto a south-facing garden, creating an excellent family entertaining flow. The specification is modern throughout, with LVT and ceramic tiled floors, a solid oak feature staircase and two en-suite bedrooms plus a separate family bathroom.
Energy efficiency is a clear selling point: the house is fitted with an air-source heat pump, underfloor heating to the ground floor and comes with a 10-year builder’s guarantee, helping to reduce running costs and provide long-term reassurance. Practical features include an integral garage, block-paved driveway and low-maintenance brick exterior. Room proportions are generous for a three-bed property (total c. 1,411 sq ft), so there is comfortable space for family life or home-working.
Buyers should be aware of the property’s semi-rural location. The house sits in a hamlet setting within an area described as having limited local services and some economic deprivation; day-to-day facilities and schools are a short drive away rather than on the doorstep. Broadband speeds are average and the garden landscaping is currently unfinished, so some external work will be required. The garage is functional but of modest internal size compared with the house.
Overall, this is a high-spec, energy-efficient new home that will suit families or buyers seeking peaceful country outlooks with modern fittings. If you value light-filled, well-insulated living space and long-term guarantees, this property offers strong appeal — though the rural setting and ongoing garden works are practical points to factor into your decision.
